Kendrick Lamar closed Glastonbury 2022 with an explosive headline set.

The Compton rapper's performance was keenly anticipated by fans, a rare chance to catch him in the flesh on UK soil.

With the reception afforded to recent album 'Mr Morales…' looming large, Kendrick took to the stage amid a palpable sense of anticipation.

As ever, he didn't let anybody down – King Kenny responded with an incredible headline set, one that left headlines in his wake.

Wearing a crown of thorns with blood pouring down his face, Kendrick closed the set by protesting the Supreme Court’s ruling on Roe v Wade.

“They judge me; they judge Christ. Godspeed for women’s rights,” he chanted, the intensity of the finale heightened by the sudden mic drop.
